Benefits of technology

[0023] When the binder of the invention is used to produce an electrode, the resultant electrode has a large electrode density and a strong binding force. When this electrode is used, an electric double layer capacitor having a large electrostatic capacity and a small internal resistance can be obtained.

Problems solved by technology

However, in the electrode produced by use of the fluorocarbon polymer, the binding force between its active material for an electrode and its current collector is insufficient.
Additionally, the electrode density thereof is low.
However, despite the use of this binder, the binding force between the active material for an electrode and the current collector is insufficient, further, the electrode density is also low.

example 1

[0075] A reactor equipped with a stirrer was purged with nitrogen, and thereto were supplied 38 parts of acrylonitrile, 59.5 parts of 1,3-butadiene, 2.5 parts of methacrylic acid, 0.4 part of t-dodecylmercaptan (TDM) as a chain transfer agent, 0.1 part of 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutylhydroperoxide and 0.008 part of ferrous sulfate as polymerization initiators, 120 parts of soft water, and 6 parts of an emulsion (Walorate [transliteration] u, manufactured by TOSHIN KAGAKU Co., Ltd.). The resultant was stirred at 5° C. for 40 hours to conduct polymerization. The polymerization conversion ratio was 95%. The composition ratio of the resultant polymer was consistent with the provided ratio of the monomers. The Tg of the resultant polymer is shown in Table 1. Next, thereto was added potassium hydroxide to adjust the pH to 7. Thereafter, steam was introduced thereinto, so as to remove the unreacted monomers. Next, the resultant was concentrated to set the solid concentration to 40% so as to yie...

example 2

[0079] Into a reactor equipped with a stirrer were supplied with 70 parts of ion exchange water, 0.2 part of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, and 0.3 part of potassium peroxodisulfate, and then a gas part therein was purged with nitrogen gas. The temperature of the system was raised to 80° C. In another container, 50 parts of ion exchange water, 0.5 part of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, 85 parts of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, 12 parts of styrene, and 3 parts of methacrylic acid were mixed to yield a monomer mixture. This monomer mixture was continuously added to the above-mentioned reactor over 5 hours to conduct polymerization. During the addition, the reaction was conducted at 80° C. After the end of the addition, the inside of the system was stirred at 85° C. for 3 hours, and then the reaction was ended. The polymerization conversion ratio was 98.3%. The composition ratio of the resultant polymer was consistent with the provided ratio of the monomers. The Tg of the resultant polymer ...

example 3

[0080] A binder composition C was yielded in the same way as in Example 2 except that the amount of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate in the monomer mixture was 83 parts and 2 parts of N-methylolacrylamide were used. The polymerization conversion ratio was 98.5%. The composition ratio of the resultant polymer was consistent with the provided ratio of the monomers. The Tg of the resultant polymer is shown in Table 1. A polymer film obtained by use of this binder composition C and the binder composition C were used to produce a slurry composition, electrodes, and an electric double layer capacitor in the same way as in Example 1. About these, each of the properties was measured. The results are shown in Table 1.
